Lo Que No Fue No Será

What Was Not Will Not Be

Lo Que No Fue No Será

In your hands I learned to drink waterEn tus manos, yo aprendí a beber agua
I was a sparrow that got trapped in your cageFui gorrión que se quedó preso en tu jaula
Because I cut my wings, and the birdseed you gave mePorque yo corté mis alas, y el alpiste que me dabas
Was so little, and yet, I loved youFue tan poco, y, sin embargo, yo te amaba

My song for you was always completeFue mi canto para ti siempre completo
Without you, I couldn't fly in another skySin ti, no pude volar en otro cielo
But you left me alone, confused, and forgottenPero me dejaste solo, confundido y olvidado
And another hand offered me the desired fruitY otra mano me ofreció el fruto anhelado

What once was will not beLo que un día fue, no será
Don't come looking for me againYa no vuelvas a buscarme
I have nothing to give youNo tengo nada que darte
I'm tired of your birdseedDe tu alpiste, me cansé

Go fly to another skyVete a volar a otro cielo
And leave your cage openY deja abierta tu jaula
Maybe another sparrow will fallTal vez otro gorrión caiga
But give it something to drinkPero dale de beber

Let me turn on the light, I don't want anythingDéjame encender la luz, no quiero nada
If this had been yesterday, I would take itSi esto hubiera sido ayer, lo tomaría
The first time you offerLa primera vez que ofreces
For me to stay herePara que yo aquí me quede
But without loving you anymore, what would I gain?Pero sin amarte ya, ¿qué ganaría?

What once was will not beLo que un día fue, no será
Don't come looking for me againYa no vuelvas a buscarme
I have nothing to give youNo tengo nada que darte
I'm tired of your birdseedDe tu alpiste, me cansé

Go fly to another skyVete a volar a otro cielo
And leave your cage openY deja abierta tu jaula
Maybe another sparrow will fallTal vez otro gorrión caiga
But give it something to drinkPero dale de beber
